history

Mittelhees is probably the original headquarters of the noble family of the Junkers von der Hees . In the 15th century it was referred to as the Hees in connection with the Wurmbach farm that still exists today and is a listed building .

The place used to be an independent municipality. Until the municipal reorganization on January 1, 1969, Mittelhees belonged to the parish of Oberholzklau and to the Freudenberg office , to which it came in 1452. Then it came to Kreuztal with three other Heestal communities ( Oberhees , Osthelden and Fellinghausen ).

The few houses are in the valley of the Hees in the middle of meadows and fields. Many old farms and the rural structure have been preserved to this day. The named Heesbach flows through the districts of Oberhees, Mittelhees, Junkernhees and Fellinghausen and flows into the Littfe .
